Daring to be different Bentos

Normally I fix the same thing for all three of us because it is so much easier than cooking seperate dishes, especially for bento meals. However, while my daughter and I are spicy food fanatics my husband is a mild loving guy. Every once in a while I cook up two batches of stir fry at the same time and make one nice and hot while the other is mild and calm. I then freeze them in single serving size containers and whenever I'm hankering for a hot thai curry I can pop them out and quickly serve up a meal that suits all of us. This was one of those times!Top tier: Stirfry with marinated tofu, alphabet french fries that spelled out JOY, baby tomatoes and peas on skewers, one red bean mochi with yellow star sprinkles.

Welcome!

Hello there! I'm Natakiya and I'm so happy that you are visiting my bento blog! We are a vegetarian family with food allergies which makes bento lunches very important to us! My little girl, A-chan, takes a bento to school everyday and I love finding excuses to make them for myself. Healthy lunches with good food is my goal, though I enjoy making food cute because it's fun!
